When you arrive at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Warwick for the Ocean State Regional (August 29-31), look for the Welcome Table. Ocean State bridge players will be stationed there to field questions about the tournament and the environs. Also, for the first time ever, you will be able to festoon your convention card holder with a cool domed sticker with the tournament's logo on it.

The experts' panel has also been announced. The lunch break on Thursday, August 31, will feature Lew Gamerman, Bob Lavin, and Harold Feldheim fielding questions about the hands played in the morning pairs session. On Friday morning at 9:15 Adam Parrish will defend his contention that “Pass is not a four-letter word.”

At the national tournament in the Spring the ACBL holds a special championship called the North American Pairs (NAP for short). Each district may send representatives in three categories—A=Open; B=Under 2500 Masterpoints; C=Under 500, Non-Life Master. The district will hold its qualifying tournaments in the fall. Players who participate in these tournaments must qualify at a special club game during June, July, or August.

The webmaster has asked New England's club owners/managers to provide a list of the qualifying games that have been scheduled. The responses can be seen here. This list, which includes all games reported to webmaster@nebridge.org through July 20, is certainly incomplete, especially for August. As new games are scheduled, the list will be updated. It is always a good idea to check with the person who runs the game.

The latest letter from NEBC President Bob Bertoni contains very important information. You can read it here.

The standings of the Best in Class awards can be viewed here. The charts include points won through the Cape tournaments. Some results in the Flight A GNT may need slight adjustments.

Winners Boards: NEBridge.org publishes photos of the winners of every strat in every event of every tournament sponsored by the district. Sad to say, the pages that contained the photos for 2014 and the first half of 2015 were lost in last summer's hardware catastrophe. However, the pages for all tournaments beginning with Hyannis in 2015 are available. The indexes have now been reconstructed.They are both available in the "Tournament Results" tab at left. The index by player can also be reached here. The index by tournament, date, and event is here. Please notify webmaster@NEBridge.org if you find any mistakes or want to submit a photo. It is never too late.

District 25 is definitely social. To keep up with the bridge news and gossip in New England check out our Facebook (NEBridge) page or follow us on Twitter (@NE_Bridge) or both. Twitter is very easy and non-threatening; for instructions on how to use it, just email webmaster@NEBridge.org.

New England Youth Bridge, Inc. has been working hard to showcase this great game to the video-game set. They urgently need our help. Details can be read here.

We strive to keep the website informative and easy to navigate.  Please  “Contact Us” if you have any questions or suggestions regarding District 25, the site, or anything else.
